But according to reports the France centre-half could finalise a switch to White Hart Lane within 24 hours.

Redknapp has made no secret of his desire to add a centre-half to his squad before the beginning of the season, following the injuries to defensive trio Michael Dawson, Ledley King and Jonathan Woodgate.

And Bassong, 23, is desperate to seal a move away from Newcastle following their relegation from the Premier League last season.

Would Bassong be a good signing for Tottenham? Let us know what you think...
